CISCO SWITCH FAMILY

Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series
The Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series provides market-leading services, performance, port densities, and availability with investment protection for enterprise and service provider markets, including: • Maximum Network Uptime-With Cisco IOS Software Modularity and platform, power supply, supervisor engine, switch fabric, and integrated network services redundancy provides one- to three-second stateful failover and delivers application and services continuity in a converged network, minimizing disruption of mission-critical data and services

• Comprehensive Network Security-Integrates proven, multi-gigabit Cisco security solutions, including intrusion detection, firewall, VPN, and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) into existing networks

• Scalable Performance-Provides up to 400-mpps performance with distributed forwarding architecture

• Forward-Thinking Architecture with Investment Protection-Supports three generations of interchangeable, hot-swappable modules in the same chassis, optimizing IT infrastructure usage, maximizing ROI, and reducing TCO

• Operational Consistency-Features 3-, 6-, 9-, and 13-slot chassis configurations sharing a common set of modules, Cisco IOS® Software, Cisco Catalyst Operating System Software, and network management tools that can be deployed anywhere in the network

• Unparalleled Services Integration and Flexibility-Integrates advanced services such as security, wireless LAN services, and content with converged networks; provides the widest range of interfaces and densities, from 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ethernet to 10 Gigabit, and from DS-0 to OC-48; and performs in any deployment from end to end


Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series
The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series provides the network infrastructure for all applications that will be integrated to solve business problems. Extending intelligent network services with integrated resiliency leads to control of all traffic types with minimal downtime. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series delivers this control with the following:
• Integrated resiliency-Network downtime is minimized with redundant supervisor engine (subsecond failover) capability (Cisco Catalyst 4507R and Catalyst 4510R switches), software-based fault tolerance, redundant fans, and 1+1 power-supply redundancy across the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series. Integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) in all Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series chassis simplifies network design and limits the number of points of failure in an IP telephony implementation.

• Sophisticated QoS-Integrated QoS and traffic-management capabilities based on Layer 2-4 classify and prioritize mission-critical and time-sensitive traffic based on 32,000 QoS policy entries. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series can shape and rate-limit bandwidth-intensive traffic with mechanisms such as input and output policers based on host, network, and application information.

• Predictable performance-The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers up to a 102-million packets per second (mpps) wire-speed forwarding rate in hardware for Layer 2-4 traffic. Switching performance is independent of the number of route entries or advanced Layer 3 services enabled.

• Advanced security-Support for Cisco patented Layer 2 security features prevents security breaches from rogue servers as well as "man in the middle" attacks where passwords and data may be intercepted. Layer 2-4 filtering and policing are also supported to mitigate the traffic initiated from malicious network attackers.

• Comprehensive management-The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers Web-based management for the configuration and control of all ports, allowing central management of critical network characteristics such as availability and responsiveness.
